ΤΑ 100 ΠΙΟ ΑΞΙΟΛΟΓΑ ΒΙΒΛΙΑ ΟΛΩΝ ΤΩΝ ΕΠΟΧΩΝ



ΤΑ 100   ΒΙΒΛΙΑ  ΠΟΥ ΘΑ ΕΠΡΕΠΕ ΝΑ ΔΙΑΒΑΣΟΥΝ
ΟΛΟΙ ΟΙ ΑΝΘΡΩΠΟΙ

Παρουσιάζουμε ένα κατάλογο με  100 αξιόλογα  βιβλία όλων των εποχών. Η λίστα αυτή δημιουργήθηκε με  πρωτοβουλία των Λεσχών Ανάγνωσης της Νορβηγίας, οι οποίες στηρίχθηκαν στη γνώμη  συγγραφέων από  πενήντα τέσσερις χώρες.
Ο κατάλογος , φυσικά,  πόρρω απέχει από το να είναι απόλυτα αντικειμενικός, όμως δεν  μπορεί να αγνοηθεί, αφού εκτός από τη γνώμη των συγγραφέων εκφράζει  και τις σταθερές αναγνωστικές προτιμήσεις του κοινού  σε μεγάλο βάθος χρόνου. 
Η αρίθμηση των βιβλίων δεν έχει χαρακτήρα αξιολογικό, παρ΄όλα αυτά η γνώμη των ειδικών συγκλίνει  στην άποψη ότι το κορυφαίο έργο αυτού του πίνακα  είναι ο Δον Κιχώτης του Θερβάντες.
Αρκετοί από τους συγγραφείς μάς είναι παντελώς άγνωστοι, ενώ αισθητή είναι η απουσία  μεγάλων δημιουργών , όπως ο Ίταλο Καλβίνο, ο Μπέρναρ Σο, ο Τόμας Έλιοτ, ο Μπόρις Πάστερνακ, ο Τζ.  Σάλιντζερ,
ο Λουίτζι Πιραντέλο κ.ά.
Ο Δον Κιχώτης και ο Σάντσο Πάντσα , σε σχέδιο
του Ονορέ Ντομιέ ( περ.1855)
